Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Problem
The `ShowImageController` (_eID tx_cms_showpic_) lacks a cryptographic HMAC-signature on the `frame` HTTP query parameter (e.g. `/index.php?eID=tx_cms_showpic?file=3&...&frame=12345`).
This allows adversaries to instruct the system to produce an arbitrary number of thumbnail images on the server side.
### Solution
Update to TYPO3 versions 9.5.48 ELTS, 10.4.45 ELTS, 11.5.37 LTS, 12.4.15 LTS, 13.1.1 that fix the problem described.
#### ℹ️ **Strong security defaults - Manual actions required**
The `frame` HTTP query parameter is now ignored, since it could not be used by core APIs.
The new feature flag `security.frontend.allowInsecureFrameOptionInShowImageController` – which is disabled per default – can be used to reactivate the previous behavior.
